They're building 50, 60, and 70 floor buildings in the burbs.
But in Vancouver, right by Commercial Station, institutional NIMBYism means even a 44 floor rental apt is a years-long fight.

i love being gay, it brings me so much joy in so many ways - but one reason is that in relationships, we're just people. with baggage and problems to work through together, sure - but without this binary system constantly telling one of us to man up and the other to clean up after them.
